I had lip augmentation with Juverderm (1ml) done on Thursday, by a cosmetic surgeon visiting my local beauty salon. I bled badly as soon as he started the procedure, and it was agonisingly painful, despite "numbing cream". It was very scary, because he was concerned about my blood vessels. There was minimal consultation, no pre-procedure or aftercare info, and I feel very naive. My lips swelled up hugely and I now look like I've been punched, the bruising is so bad. Is this normal?
